Im sitting here laughing at the crap she wrote. haha

She is definitely feminist sounding but i think some guys doing the whole PUA thing are definitely a little jaded and aren't good in actual relationships because the tricks where off at that point and it becomes who you really are and how you can relate without being needy....i see a lot of guys on here who get the girl and then freak out in a relationship and let insecurity get the best of them...this guy sounds like one of them not to mention some people doing PUA can be too robotic and not really able to deeply relate with another person...have seen that on here as well....let's be honest, this type of thing does tend to attract odd characters at times...

There's two sides to this...

1. She got laid in college. He probably didn't, so he had his ONS' later on in his late 20s. She looks down on him for this. It's not that he had ONS'. She thinks he's a loser because he had them LATER in life. This isn't fair.

2. On the other hand, I think too much pickup artistry could make some guys more jaded, cynical, and unlikely to fully commit to a relationship. I can see this side too.

if that is her in the picture, she gets a 0 bro

edit:

if feminist didn't exist, we wouldn't have PUA's because we would be getting it just fine.

hahaha i was thinking the same...if that is her then she couldn't have been dating a real PUA...she is not hot at all...not even good looking

Check out her photos.

Gahh. She looks like a plain-jane, post wall woman. Frumpy body + unattractive = projecting in article.

"Look at that! That ugly girl turned down a PUA! Lets celebrate her and her ego!" - said nobody ever

This girl sounds like a twwat.

She even says it in the article: "At times I may have a fleeting thought, that maybe, just maybe, I am a ***t..."

 

[Mr_Stinky]

She also seems to have multiple cats

"he wanted to wear the pants (outside the bedroom, I mean) not as a choice we made together but because he thought he had to"
This made me laugh. hard. Can you say entitlement issues?

 

[Night-hawk]

Like most women she wants to feel commended and the best way to do that is devalue the man through shaming and reassert her female entitlement. She will form her article and pov to resolve any lingering doubts that maybe she is or was a ****t and to relieve the itch on her *****y that this big bad pua left with a scratch and a high five to her rationalizing from the other ****s out there.

It also looks like she has been overly indulging in sympathy rice crispy squares and tang. Good on ya girl.

When she says "pick-up artist", does she mean one of those hunters from the TV show Whale Wars?

I just saw her real photo...holy sh&t...i think we can all agree that any guy who would date her is not what you would call a successful or legit PUA...it would be an extreme beta...i would never ever date someone of her looks level...i don't even think she is drunken hookup material looks wise....you would have to be pretty damn desperate to hit that on a regular basis and call her your GF

I wouldn't be caught dead with a straight up walrus like that.. Some "PUA" that guy was...
